YM778.TV 323 Chapter 322
Although the tower had some useful functions… it didn\'t have a ventilation system. So, Ivolaer had to use his magic to keep the air breathable, Jertien and Genelosa had to keep things fresh during the day, and Inglar had to keep the tower warm at night… using his fire magic.

While Jorhorn, Ismenria, Genelosa, and Jertien were trying to map the continent, finding the new dungeons and where the angels were supposed to be. Leon, Inglar, Ivolaer, and Alurelle were killing all the monsters that got too close to the dungeon. Although the tower was well-hidden under the desert, they had some noisy and insistent neighbors.
Blazing Earthworm

Those monsters only appeared when the world reached the third stage of assimilation, so they could quickly destroy the earth walls Jorhorn created. That being said, the fact that they had to keep their mouths open to do everything was their downfall. Leon practiced his new thunder spells on them since their mouths were great practice targets.
"Flamethrower… it sounds interesting."
At first, Leon considered creating a weapon and give that power to it, but soon, he changed his mind. It was better to learn the spell itself, and that kind of attack gave Leon another exciting idea.
"Wouldn\'t it be awesome if I could replicate the same kind of attack using other elements? Instead of holding back an enemy for a few seconds, I could stop it for several more if I could use shot lightning bolts through my hands non-stop."
It would be weird to replicate that using earth magic, but even using water, Leon could stop a monster\'s advance using something like that. He could perhaps even kill it if he makes the attack concentrated in a single spot!
Leon felt like he should train his elemental resistance a bit more, but that idea was too good just to put on his list of the things he wanted to learn. Although a similar effect could be obtained by leveling up Fast Conjuration, it could be used at different moments to get different results. Leon started to practice immediately, but it took him a few days to learn the spell per se.

"Mmm… I guess my habit of trying to conserve mana slowed me down a little bit. This type of spell doesn\'t require a certain speed to be learned, but a large amount of mana must be consumed to learn it."
While Leon was analyzing his new spell, Jertien approached to see the damage Leon caused to the reinforced walls Jorhorn created. Since it was only at level one, the signs of damage were meager, but there were signs.
"You sure learn spells fast," Jertien rubbed.
"That is probably because my intelligence is somewhat high, and I increased it since the very beginning," Leon said.
"That is probably the case," Jertien nodded. "Since you made that kind of choice, you can learn spells quite fast… that being said, it is a bit dreadful seeing you learn so fast when my intelligence is higher than yours."
Despite hearing that, Leon didn\'t feel anything, it was the result of his own actions, after all. If Leon\'s attacks could increase by every point, he allocated in intelligence. The same thing could be applied to Jertien\'s defenses. He still needed to test the effects of the growth of other stats, but it was evident that they wouldn\'t be as efficient as his intelligence.
Regardless, even though it was cool to keep shooting flames like that, it wouldn\'t be that useful against the angels. They were fast, and Flamethrower also had an effective range. Still, Leon decided to level up that spell.
"Can I use that on you?" Leon asked. "You have a spell of ice that freezes the area around you and decreases the power of fire attacks, right?"
"Sure, go on." Jertien smiled.

Jertien\'s cooperation was suspicious, but Leon wouldn\'t lose that chance. Despite the speed that Flamethrower was leveling up, Leon didn\'t see Jertien even moving away from the flames. He didn\'t use his hammer to block either… that was the power of his defensive skills.
"I guess that is to be expected… even if he obtained the power of the spirit of ice, he didn\'t have to sacrifice his Fire Resistance."
Leon wondered if he could learn that Frozen Aura, that kind of skill would be beneficial since it could stop fire attacks like that. It was also possible that it could increase the power of ice attacks, but Leon decided not to ask if that was the case to Jertien since it was like trying to learn the weaknesses and strengths of one of his primary skills. Leon tried to change the nature of his Mana Armor and wanted to make it colder and hotter, but he failed. Unfortunately, it looked like that kind of skill could only be learned by making pacts with spirits… Leon could only hope that he would meet those spirits someday in the future.
